The 13 Best Hiding Places In West Virginia To Stay Safe In A Zombie Apocalypse

So, let’s imagine that the world has ended. There could be any number of reasons for it, but zombies are the default apocalypse, so let’s go with that. Since no one among us wants to be the main course in an all-you-can-eat zombie buffet, you will want to find shelter and security. And guns. Guns will probably be good. Here are some of the best locations to wait out the zombie hordes in West Virginia.

A military base is always a good bet if you want to survive the zombie herds shambling your way. If you live in Kingwood, you're in luck, because Camp Dawson is not a far drive. Keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times.

Here is the best reason to choose the Greenbrier as your place of safety: The facility has a doomsday bunker you can hide inside. It was designed to house congress if the nukes started dropping, so it should do just fine against a bunch of brain-hungry dead folks.

So, if the underground tunnel option doesn't pan out for you, Morgantown has a second option: Pietro's Castle. A castle is always a good place to hide. Although this wasn't a castle designed to fend off an invading army, it still has strong walls with towers to pick off your unwanted visitors as they approach.

Islands are good if you can find one. You may have a problem with any zombies on the island itself, but once you take those guys out, no more will be coming your way, since zombies cannot swim. Not even if one of them used to be Michael Phelps.

Prisons are great for your survival, because they are designed to keep people locked in. Although, this prison is said to be haunted, so there's that. At least ghosts can't eat your brain. I don't think.

You may have to clear it out and secure the doors and windows, but once that's done, you will have everything you need, in bulk. Food, weapons, clothes, you name it. Hopefully, the apocalypse began at night while the location was closed, and not at noon on Black Friday.

Hopefully, this list will help you survive the zombie apocalypse. If not, I don’t envy your new diet.
